Launched in the UK around 2016 this represented the first new Maker's Mark recipe for about 50 years and adds a unique twist to the standard release. There are essentially 2 main differences between Maker’s 46 and Maker’s Mark. The 46 is aged slightly longer which softens the structure whilst imparting more flavour. Secondly French oak staves are added to the Bourbon towards the end of its additional aging process adding further spicy notes. The resulting Bourbon is unashamedly intense and pronounced displaying a toffee and spice nose and an expressive palate that is explosively spicy and deliciously layered. Sweet and indulgent on the finish this is a brilliant release from Maker’s which offers an interesting alternative to the classic original.
